Overview of Centurion at 33 West 56th Street

Located at 33 West 56th Street just off Fifth Avenue, the Centurion opened in 2009.

Pritzker Prize-winning architect I.M. Pei and his son, Sandi Pei, designed the Centurion to incorporate a wide variety of floor plans among its 48 condominium units, with ceilings measuring from 10 to 17 feet and layouts ranging from one to four bedrooms. Three are configured as penthouses, while 13 apartments have terraces. What they all share are exquisitely designed interiors with oversized, tinted and sound-insulated windows and teak floors. Kitchens feature custom cabinets with clear glass countertops and modern appliances; spacious master bathrooms have dual sinks, soaking tubs and separate shower stalls.

Shared amenities at the Centurion include a water garden with reflecting pool, a 1,500-square-foot exercise center, an on-premise garage and hotel-style concierge service.
